The first variant of the original, the AF is identical to the Argus A except that the
two-position focus Neck was traded for a variable version with a focal length from 15
inches to infinity. This rendered the portrait and copy lens attachments unnecessary and
greatly increased the photographic flexibility of the camera. This model only came with
the black and brass faceplate.
